Khan could learn a tip or two from Froch, Haye and Hatton
November 10th, 2009
By Liam Santiago: It is no surprise that the many of the British public are against Amir Khan. After amazing performances from classy world champions Carl Froch and David Haye over the last few months, Khan has been made to look lacking. Many people don’t care about Khan in Britain and for some, he is old news. I am sure if he moves to America he will not be missed that much.
Carl Froch has entered into a tournament where he fights the very best at his weight. Why can’t Khan show some of Froch’s fearless streak? I can understand that the scars from the Prescott defeat (Khan was destroyed in a matter of seconds), but eventually he will have to fight a decent opponent.
Amir can spend as much time at the Wildcard gym as he wants but it won’t put muscles on his chin. When Khan finally faces a top operator like Devon Alexander, Timothy Bradley or Ricky Hatton and he comes up short, as I expect him to, once again, blame his trainer, Freddie Roach. The style Roach has given Khan is nothing special. The way Amir talks about the way Roach has changed his style, you would think Roach is a brain surgeon. All he has taught him to do is run, and run and run, and run a little more. My pet dog could have shown him that and he only has one leg.

I AGREE IF HE WAS WHITE EVERYONE WOULD JUST SHUT UP AND JUST SUPPORT HIM BECAUSE HES FLYING THE UNION JACK. NICKY COOK WON THE WORLD TITLE HE WASNT VERY GOOD BUT DID ANYONE QUESTION IT NO ALL THE FANS JUST GOT BEHIND HIM AND NEVER WORRIED ABOUT WHO HE LOST IN THE PAST.GIVE KHAN A BREAK
Why cant u people just get behind Amir Khan hes british hes flying the flag, what has hes color got to do wiv his boxing, so what if hes been knocked out why u idiots living in the past and why all this jealousy. If he was WHITE I guarantee u there wouldnt be this much debate and thats a fact no matter how much anyone denies it.
He a!n’t a bolton!an either,he’s Brit!sh born Musl!m of Pak!sta! descent
He aint Asian, hes from Bolton.
So sorry boys, I made a mistake, please forgive me. Amir Khan I am extremely sorry. The only reason I wrote this is because I hate Asian people. Somebody helpppppppppp somebodyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.
Roots,Khan doesn’t need that lesson he’s all ready learn it from WILLY LIMOND, MICHAEL GOMEZ, PREIDIS PRESCOTT and few more he best break dancer i’ve seen in the ring.
I agree, in my eyes until Khan fights Prescott again he earns no respect as a fighter. I would have more respect for Khan if he fights Prescott again and gets beat again than i do now. How can a man claim to be the best light welter out thier with a un-avenged first round KO on his record.
@ROOTS
Kahn is already a pro at looking up at the ring lights from the canvas. He can do it in 30 seconds!
WHAT CAN KHAN LEARN FROM HATTON? EXCEPT HOW TO LIE DOWN AND LOOK UP AT THE RING LIGHTS.FROCH CAN´T BOX, AND CALZAGE IS OVERATED.
amir you must sicken these haters by taking on miadana next year and knocking him out. u get me
Khan has hundred times more fans than hatton , calzaghe, had when they was any where near his age, he can still draw bigger crowds than haye or froch eyes closed without even fighting the mega big fights. he is loved my many and hated by a few which is a good thing because it will only push him more and make him stronger.
oh…i apolagise……………….
anon..i dont see how Liam is ‘vile’, he has an opinion on Khan….
Lets face it Prescott finished him. He can fight non punchers for fight after fight….but eventually he will go AGAIN
MILLION $$$ FIGHTER your mama and sister are white c unts.
talks agood fight.
yes khan is overprotected. But eventually he will av to fight a quality opponent. hes fooling no one with hes world champion status
Only in America
Santiago could learn a thing or two from impartiality
Liam i hope u die
i think your being a little hasty he is fighting the guys put in front of him and winning (apart from prescot) which has hopefully tought him a good lesson or two, his young and has plenty of time so why rush after this defence he needs to fight a top 5 contender not a soft mandertory and see how he develops then after that go after the likes of bradley, holt even witter would be a good fight in England as hes just as disliked as khan and would be a good contest, hes only 22 after all and if he wants to stay in this game at the top he needs too pick the right fights
its not amir khan its amir khanT
He is a disgrace to British boxing..he is no champ….good article
i guarentee that if a super 6 tournament was formed in the Light-welter division Khan would show the same attitude that Lucien Bute did towards the one in the super middle weight divsion.
i hate him cus he is a pa k1…….anyone agree
Khans record is what real boxing fans are interested in. If we are all really honest, because of all the corruption in the sport, the amount of belts and governing bodies within each division it matters not what you own, but more on who you fight and Khans record is far from impressive. Controversially beating a “shot” Barerra fighting above his prime weight is not an achievement. Beating a world champ generally is, but not when you’ve previously described them as the weakest champion out there and the easiest route to a title. Khans not hated, he’s just not rated by many a fan, based on his record and some would say who he has not fought!
Thank you stuarty. I just saw ur comments just after I done Liams mum.
prescott vs mitchell is on khan undercard which means he is lining up a fight with the winner, so liam stop hating. no disrespect to froch or haye but where was they when they was 22? in their nappies maybe? lol. liam please write another article explaining what have you got against personall and at least make it clear that all your articles are biased against khan?
haye is 29 and froch is 31!! they have no chance but to figt the best rite now!! khan is 22 and has time to develop and make sure by the time he is 24/25 hes better equipt to deal with the better fighters in his division!! his chin is suspect without a doubt but so what!! hes talented and exciting and deserves to be given a chance!!
we get it, you don’t like khan, change the channel already!
He sure could. A little bit of good honest ambition is all it takes.
His record to date and his world title is pretty impressive, look at who hes fought tho and it all becomes a bit average. Weve all seen how bad his chin is and we dont think he can fight big hitters. He claims the opposite and says he will fight them, and beat them.
But for all the talk theres been not much movement around these big name and facing Barerra didnt count. he was fattened up and Khan didnt really beat him as such anyway.
But, hes a wold champ, fair play, hes facing the number 1 challenger, fair play. Just make sure after that you dont go backwards, and us boxing fans will know, we aint idiots.
KAHN is overated and cant take a punch
